Please do not keep updating the live positions of the play off clubs.

We've qualified, let's leave it at that, and let us enjoy our game.

It's still meaningful to us where we finish.

Not as annoying as them updating on the Dull and Scunny scores. Ditto the egg chasing of Eff Cee and Kerrr Arrr. Everyone who’s interested in their own team’s game is already listening on the correct platform. Stop trying to make cross-Humber affinity a thing, you’re not Ted Heath!

Tbf i do sometimes get FM in the car but not DAB so the updates can help if we are on different channel.

I guess there’s always some people who will moan about absolutely f**k all, have a day off FFS.

Think the RH coverage is decent when you listen to other local radio stations.

Matt’s a decent commentator & a big Town supporter under the veil of impartiality.

I like Matt, a worthy Tondeur successor, but he definitely dances with the commentator's curse a bit too much for me. Find myself telling him to ST-U mentally a lot.

It’s Radio Humberside… they have a duty to cover all sides in the area. And they do it well. It’s far from easy commentating on a game.. easy to make mistakes.. say names wrong/get people wrong.. honestly.. try doing it yourself as it happens. Not an easy gig at all. Matt is following someone who’s synonymous with Town.. big shoes to fill.. but he’s doing it well, in his own style. And doing it well imho.

I think Dean's a great commentator - he's made my following of Town much more enjoyable.  The Scousers I was listening to today were woeful.  The sidekick had a mental Scouse accent and the illegitimate predicted the goal - when they were about to take the corner he said "Let's blow the roof off here."

I wish we had radio commentary for Arsenal games.  Used to have Capital Gold in the '90s and noughties, though that had to deal with all London games even if ours was often the one being commentated on.

I really miss having a radio commentator who's from your town and is biased towards your team.  As I say, I've really enjoyed their commentary.  Ganpati willing, I'll hear them commentating on your upcoming play-off victories.
